Custom: Turnkey Manufacturing of a Ground Heater

The project highlighted here is known as a
“Toaster”; it is a propane-fuelled, electronically-controlled infrared heater.
It is designed for thawing ground to allow excavation and trenching in periods
and locations affected by frost.

Within 2 weeks of engineering, procurement and project planning, followed by 45 days of production, we managed to produce, integrate, test and ship 200 units. Four trailer loads of product have been dispatched in northern areas of Alberta and Ontario, just in time to keep the construction work alive throughout the white season.

The customer (Serious Toaster – Calgary) has expressed total satisfaction for the result, stating: “Over-all, we are very happy with the quality of work from Nelson Industries. Your guys did an excellent job in being accommodating in last minute and mid-stream changes.”
